The ability to digest lactose is determined genetically and varies substantially among the various regions of the world. Approximately 70% of the world population suffers in varying degrees from lactose intolerance. Lactase Enzyme, a formulation based on neutral lactase, breaks down lactose into glucose, sucrose and galacto-oligosaccharides and ensures a controlled and economical elimination of the lactose in milk and milk-based products, resulting in improved digestion.
